The Indian Union Muslim League or I. U. M. L. (commonly referred to as the League inside Kerala) is a centre-right political party in India. It is recognized by the Election Commission of India as a State Party in Kerala.
The party is a major member of the opposition United Democratic Front, the Indian National Congress-lead pre-poll state-level alliance in Kerala.[2] Whenever the United Democratic Front rules in Kerala, the party leaders are chosen as important Cabinet Ministers. The party has always had a constant, if small presence, in the Indian Parliament.[2] The party is a part of the United Progressive Alliance in national level.[2]
The party currently has four members in Parliament (P. K. Kunhalikutty, E. T. Mohammed Basheer, and K. Navas Kani in the Lower House and P. V. Abdul Wahab in the Upper House) and seventeen members in State Legislative Assemblies (Kerala and Tamil Nadu).
History
[edit]After the partition of India in 1947, the All-India Muslim League was disbanded. It was succeeded by the Indian Union Muslim League in the new India.[2]
The party contests Indian General Elections under the Indian Constitution. B. Pocker, elected from Malappuram Constituency, was a member of the First Lower House (1952–57) from the Madras Muslim League (M. M. L.).[2]
The party has had two members in every Lower House from the third to the 16th House, with the exception of the Second, in which it had no members, and the fourth, in which it had three members. The party had a single member in the 14th Lower House.[2] The party currently has four members in Parliament.
